Association of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in Surfactant Protein A and D with Otitis Media. [PDF]
Otitis Media is one of the most common childhood diseases. Recurrent acute otitis media RAOM is characterized by repeated episodes of inflammation of the middle ear in conjunction with middle ear fluid, and often with an inflamed or bulging eardrum ...

Spatial and temporal expression of surfactant proteins in hyperoxia-induced neonatal rat lung injury
Background Bronchopulmonary dysplasia, a complex chronic lung disease in premature children in which oxidative stress and surfactant deficiency play a crucial role, is characterized by arrested alveolar and vascular development of the immature lung.

Protective Role of Surfactant Protein D in Ocular Staphylococcus aureus Infection. [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common pathogens causing keratitis. Surfactant protein D (SP-D) plays a critical role in host defense and innate immunity. In order to investigate the role of SP-D in ocular S.

TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Surfactant protein D in immune surveillance against cancer [PDF]
Surfactant protein D (SP-D) is an innate immune molecule that was originally discovered in the lungs as a part of pulmonary surfactant system. Later on, it became evident that SP-D has extensive tissue distribution that lent its credentials as a ...

The Correlation Between Surfactant Protein-D (SP-D) Serum Level and Intubation Time on Covid-19 Patients in Indonesia [PDF]
: COVID-19 patients with ARDS who are admitted to the ICU needed tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation, where the tracheal intubation strategy as early as possible with the good protocol ventilation management produce favorable patient outcomes.

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,
